Climbing the stairs turns into torture
But the musculoskeletal system is not immune to aging processes. Bones become weaker and more fragile, joints are less flexible and more prone to injury. Also, muscle mass and muscle strength are gradually lost.
Stair climbing is a simple and effective training method, but sooner or later there comes a day when getting to the front door or upstairs becomes a (very) huge challenge.
So indoor and outdoor stairlifts can be helpful in a variety of situations: Whether in residential, commercial or public spaces, they provide wonderful, invaluable relief for people with mobility issues, physical disabilities or injuries.
Not all stairlifts are the same
A stairlift can be installed outdoors and in almost any type of building. The choice depends on the type of staircase, the structural conditions and the specific needs of the user. Accordingly, there is a wide range of models for platform lifts designed for straight or curved stairs, for indoor or outdoor use, or for transporting people in wheelchairs. Platform lifts can also be used to transport luggage, goods or purchased goods.
Autonomy is a priceless commodity
Stairlifts are an important tool for people with disabilities to achieve equality, self-determination and participation. The stairlift is an important step towards personal mobility and independence for all people who rely on it.
